Athletics at NNPS

The Athletic Program at Newport News Public Schools provides an
opportunity for those students endowed with the physical and mental ability to compete at a level higher than
that offered in the normal instructional program. This program will allow the talented athletes to develop their
skills and knowledge to a higher degree of competency on the practice field and offer them the laboratory of
the playing field to measure their accomplishments in competition with their peers.

In addition to the development of these physical skills, the athletic program will offer the athlete the
opportunity to become a more useful and loyal member of society by developing a desire to achieve
excellence but with the willingness to make personal sacrifices for the benefit of the team. Close contact with
teammates and opponents will develop a sense of loyalty and dedication as well as a respect for the dignity
of others.
